In a promo poster for upcoming ABC show The Taste (“about tasting and judging food without ever knowing who has cooked it or what ingredients have been used”), Nigella Lawson wouldn’t let the ad team airbrush out her stomach.

“Although it was very thrilling to think of being up on a billboard in LA and around the States, I was very strict and English and told them they weren’t allowed to airbrush my tummy out. Wise? Hmmm. But that tum is the truth and is come by honestly, as my granny would have said.”
